X Abstract

<para> The structural, magnetic and electrical properties of Co<formula formulatype="inline"> <tex Notation="TeX">$_2$</tex></formula>MnSi thin films grown onto n-doped Si(110) and n-Si(100) substrates were studied. The structure and magnetic properties of Co<formula formulatype="inline"><tex Notation="TeX">$_2$</tex> </formula>MnSi thin films were found to depend strongly on the annealing temperature <formula formulatype="inline"><tex Notation="TeX">$(T_rm A)$</tex></formula>. At <formula formulatype="inline"><tex Notation="TeX">$T_rm A =275hbox--350^circ$</tex> </formula>C, the Co<formula formulatype="inline"><tex Notation="TeX">$_2$</tex> </formula>MnSi films were of B2 phase with <formula formulatype="inline"> <tex Notation="TeX">$langle 100rangle$</tex></formula> texture and possessed magnetic moment on both substrates. The saturation magnetization <formula formulatype="inline"><tex Notation="TeX">$(M_rm S)$</tex></formula> of Co<formula formulatype="inline"><tex Notation="TeX">$_2$</tex></formula>MnSi thin films was found maximum at <formula formulatype="inline"><tex Notation="TeX">$T_rm A =300^circ$</tex></formula>C. Chemical reaction might occur between Co<formula formulatype="inline"><tex Notation="TeX">$_2$</tex></formula>MnSi and Si above <formula formulatype="inline"><tex Notation="TeX">$T_rm A =350^circ$</tex> </formula>C which caused nearly zero <formula formulatype="inline"><tex Notation="TeX">$M_rm S$</tex></formula> value. The current-voltage (<formula formulatype="inline"> <tex Notation="TeX">$I$</tex></formula>-<formula formulatype="inline"><tex Notation="TeX">$V$</tex></formula>) characteristic of the Co<formula formulatype="inline"> <tex Notation="TeX">$_2$</tex></formula>MnSi thin films onto n-Si substrates was obtained linear suggesting the contacts were ohmic nature. </para>

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
